His v-trigger appears to be an auto-combo of some kind (they show it for both his forms). There's no trigger flash when he transforms, just a puff of smoke, suggesting it's a regular command or v-skill.

Huh, that's interesting. Guy on stage after the trailer dropped said it was his v-trigger, but he must have been wrong.

My heart wants to agree with you brother, but my ears say nay.

The large Street Fighter extremities don't usually bother me but my god the thickness of his hand there is unsettling.
Why do you hate Megadrive Sonic?!

Zekus young/old gimmick presents many design possibilities. Call me Capcom.
This season has given us two top tier hunks in Ed and Zeku. Now put that season pass on sale please.

looks like the dash into attack, check 2nd gif where he VT sHK into the dash into combo attack
IMO it's a psuedo-ranbu super (think kof)
And one god tier hunk in Abigail.

Old Zeku please. Not that hype for Strider lookalike young version. Though both versions look badass with the story costume
How can you say no to that beautiful smile?

He probably will like the character but then pretend to say he doesn't like the way he looks just to appease his fanbase.
If Max was in charge the game's roster would be Ken, St Ken, Evil Ken, Chaotic neutral Ken, Holy Ken, KenKen.
Someone in one of the other threads also mentioned it could give him a teleport dash + chainable normals.

Was there a command grab tho? I thought I spotted one thing but it looked more like ibuki's than a 'real' one.
Pretty much. I saw his latest SFV: AE video and he claims that he didn't play it much because apparently Ken looks bad (looked worse in SF4 and it's only on character select) and that his move set didn't gel with him. Which is a huge contrast to what he initially said. Contradicts himself a lot.

Zeku's VT sort of looks like Custom Combos without the Bullshit in between.
Neutral Ken? Lol, nah...max admitted in his last sfv vid that neutral based footsie games aren't his thing. Gotta change neutral ken to chaotic cross up tatsu ken ☺️
Lol, and guys, don't hate on max too hard, he just doesn't like the game. Like, no vendetta against it, I think he just legit doesn't enjoy. Pretty much in tune with mike Ross.
It looks like a bushin chain but I doubt it's another Juri VT.
So, turning into a younger form mid-match... he's Otane from Power Instinct Series?!
Look, he even shares a similar costume / color palette with Otane and Oume's mom through art!
This is something you don't see much of, especially in 3D. Is it weird I feel slightly cheated that it's such a quick model swap, though? I wish there was some kind of "live morph" moment when I could see the wrinkles fading and his hair and body shift into youth.
And I agree with the David Carridine comparison too, his face instantly has a "I've seen that outside of gaming!" feel to it, and that must be it! Good reference.
Why does everyone think his V-Trigger is an auto-combo? Wouldn't it just be the ability to perform various Final Fight combos? (Partnered with the ability to dash cancel them)?
I do feel somewhat meh at what I saw, not because of a lack of ambition or thinking he looks uncool, but the trailer just felt like he's... fancy, but nothing too specific? If they're displaying a character archetype, the only thing I'm left thinking is "overly complex", lol. He doesn't exactly look like a zoner, I don't think he really focuses on grapples, he's not an obvious counter character... what gameplay spot is he filling? He's a ninja, but doesn't look mega-fast, and his flips-into-attacks actually look kinda slow.
Much different for me than the Menat and Kolin trailers, where I just KNEW I had to play them after watching. My brother is a big fan of Guy, and I can't figure out if he'll enjoy Zeku yet or not! I definitely need to see more, in a better-presented style.

After all the online hype this week I feel a bit let down by this one ... he looks fun I suppose and his trailer has catchy music but beyond that ? I don't know.
The strider ish transformation technique is neat I guess but it's not as exciting for me as it apparently is for most ?
